Bonfyre American GrilleVery good will return.I typically go to bonfyre for family events, its a great place for larger groups. The food is consistently good and its never too noisy to carry on conversation.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMQuality, tasty food.The menu had a little of everything but was not overwhelming. Food came out at the right pace and temperature was perfect. I was worried when we pulled up and saw it was part of a "mall type" place...but it was very good. A little noisy and cramped, but it was prom night.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMFun date night placeEven for early dinner the restaurant was crowded but we had a reservation so were seated right away. Interesting drink menu, really liked their version of Old Fashioned. Had the chips as an appetizer and they were very good. Rather large portion filled us up so we opted to split a salad and Thai pizza for the entree. The Thai pizza was different, but good and not too spicy. Split the chocolate cake and it was good. Will go again for the BBQ.5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMGood job all aroundVery good food and outstanding service. We will definitely be back and will recommend.4/25/2013 12:00:00 AMcelebrating girl friends birthdays!celebrating girl friends birthdays! perfect place to go to celebrate!!!4/25/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat for a groupA group of friends met at Bonfyre and we all loved our meals!! The drinks and the service were also great. We had a large group and we didn't feel that we had to wait long for service!!4/24/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Butternut Squash SoupThe Butternut Squash Soup was superb. We decided to share appetizers for dinner instead of ordering an entree. Appetizers were so-so, not what I would have expected because I have always given the entrees high marks.4/24/2013 12:00:00 AMLove this place!Healthy, delicious menu options. They are always tweaking their menu to reflect the flavors of the season.4/24/2013 12:00:00 AMPerfect Setting!Our first time there! Excellent food, beautiful atmosphere, romantic lighting, great service! I can't wait to be back in the area to visit again!!4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMVery nice evening for allVery nice evening for all those in our party of six. Thank you!4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMNew to MadisonOur first time at this establishment. We had prompt and friendly service. The food was exceptional. The drink specials were well made and refined- the Irish Margarita and the Hennessy new fashioned were superb. Atmosphere was modern, and it was very busy in the early evening, though this did not impact our service. The beer and wine list was good. We will most certainly be back.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMWe make it to Bonfyre a fewWe make it to Bonfyre a few times a year. We look forward to it every time and are always pleased. Seasonal rotations to their menu make each trip a bit different for us.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways a favoriteThis is one of my favorite restaurants in the Madison area. The food is always good and management tries to keep patrons interested by changing up the menu every now and then. This time I had the ahi tuna burger, which is outstanding, and the green beans as a side. Yummy! My husband had the new scallop dish, which he thoroughly enjoyed. He also had the squash soup as a starter. That's been on the menu since day one and is one of the best squash soups I've ever had. It consistently has just the right amount of spice for a kick and some tart granny smith apple chunks. Delish! Service here is always good and this time was no different. Our server was a male who was very friendly and attentive. No doubt, we will be back again soon.4/17/2013 12:00:00 AMfirst time, very nice, goodfirst time, very nice, good food and great specialty drinks4/14/2013 12:00:00 AMThe FIre & Ice bloody maryThe FIre & Ice bloody mary is spectular, although it's a meal within itself -- and it's the special on Sundays! The brunch menu is limited and the food items on it are nothing special, so I reccommend ordering off the regular menu.4/14/2013 12:00:00 AMLove it!I LOVE Bonfyre!! I've had nothing but great experiances there! The managers are wonderful and kind, and the Servers are attentive and friendly. The food there is always delicious, enspecially the steaks, which are almost always cooked to perfection. Its a beautiful resturant and well kept.
I'd reccomend this resturant to anyone.4/14/2013 12:00:00 AMFound Bonfyre Grille (randomFound Bonfyre Grille (random pick) in Feb. Have been back twice since then.

Great pricing4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food!My wife and I have eaten here many times. If you happen to be seated near the bar it can be a bit noisey, the overall atmosphere is still great.

One of my favorites is the Cioppino (seafood stew).3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMBest place for ribsBonfyre has a great wood fire spell, which stirs the appetite; but the main reason for my patronage is that Bonfyre has the best ribs in the Madison area!3/27/2013 12:00:00 AMThe Sunday brunch menu wasThe Sunday brunch menu was very good, several people in our party had the brunch menu and were very pleased with the taste and the amount of food.

Otherwise this is a highly recommended restaurant.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMBirthday BashThis was my first time there and what a pleasant surprise it was! I booked the reservation for my daughters 25th birthday dinner as we always try to find a fun and reasonable place to have a family gathering. The aroma of the wood grill is very comforting and instantly puts you in a good mood. We were seated promptly and if there was only one tiny negative, I felt we were a little crowded, but overall not an issue. Our server was cordial and attentive, but not annoying. The food was top shelf and cooked to order with nobody having a send back. Overall, it was a pleasant surprise and one of Madison's best kept secrets for a comfortable casual dining experience. Bonfyre is awesome!3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMIt was the best steak I hadIt was the best steak I had in at least 4 years.
